Why is America the way it is?
That’s the question I seek to answer in Searching for America, a ‘field guide’ to the USA and its people.
I’m your host, Robyn Curnow. I’m an award-winning South African journalist, former CNN anchor, and recovering news junkie who has spent years reporting and presenting from newsrooms and stories around the world.
On Searching for America, I bring an outsider’s perspective to the culture and politics of my new home in America, informed by years of interviewing global figures and covering major events.
I follow my curiosity as I explore this massive country and culture, engaging with both sides of the political spectrum, and bring my children up in Atlanta, Georgia.
Join me as I dive into everything from Angertainment to Political Homelessness, from the magic of Dolly Parton to the future of journalism and AI, hoping to understand the impossibly large puzzle of America by putting together its pieces.
